Oracle changed the rules on Java. Most enterprises don't know yet.

In January 2023, Oracle moved Java SE to an employee-based metric. A company with 10,000 employees now owes Oracle based on headcount, not how many servers run Java. The financial exposure for most enterprises is 3-10x what they expect.

JAVA SE SUBSCRIPTION PRICING

Employee Metric (Jan 2023+)
$15.00/employee/month
Based on total employee count, not Java users
Example: 5,000 employees
$900,000/year
Even if only 200 people use Java
We've saved clients an average of 42% on this number.

Results from the field.

"We thought our only option was to pay Oracle's $4.8 million claim. They reduced it by 93% and structured terms that actually work for us."
